Legally Blonde |
London theatre |
College sweetheart and homecoming queen Elle Woods
doesn’t take no for an answer, so when her boyfriend, Warner,
dumps her for someone serious, Elle puts down the credit card,
hits the books, and heads for Harvard Law School with her Chihuahua,
Bruiser. The verdict? This much fun shouldn’t be
legal! Along the way, Elle proves that being true to yourself
never goes out of style.
Based on the hit movie of the same name, Legally
Blonde is the Broadway sensation that earned seven Tony
nominations and ten Drama Desk Award nominations during its
Broadway run. The London production is directed and choreographed
by Jerry Mitchell, (Hairspray) who also performed this dual
role for the Broadway production.
